Anyone have experience buying these off brand batteries and are they worth giving it a try?
![]()
Following up on my own question: I got a response from the Amazon seller and these off brand replacement batteries carry 1 year warranty. Since I can buy 3 of these batteries for the price of one original Ryobi battery, I decided to order one of these off brand batteries and give it a try.
FWIW, I have been watching YouTube videos comparing run times between these off brand batteries and the original Ryobi batteries. The original Ryobi batteries used to be a lot better in performance versus the off brand batteries that were reviewed 3 years ago. The most recent comparison videos, within this year, indicate hardly any performance difference at all. Well, I'll give it a try as I want an extra battery now when I plan on using it early in the spring rather than wait until mid-summer, or later, hoping that they go on sale at Home Depot.
